LAVENDER FEELS – A STYLED SHOOT IN DUBAI

May 2, 2019

Back in February a bunch of talented souls came together to create some magic, and today we are sharing that with you. Monica, the mastermind behind the shoot talks about the inspiration and the beauty of ‘Lavender Feels‘.

Whenever planning a photo shoot the first step is a concept. Once you have a concept, I think it’s important to think about the feeling you want to portrait. With that in mind, the team you invite to “play” is essential as they will make sure to translate, capture and deliver that feeling through what they do. This is exactly what happened when this amazing team came together.

Arabian Ranches Golf Club as our beautiful venue. It has amazing areas for outdoor weddings. Incredible stylist Joelle from My Lovely Wedding did both the styling and the flowers for this shoot. Using divine event rentals from Party Social and incredible furniture from Innovative Hiring she created this lovely, countryside stylish setup. Gorgeous delicate and modern jewelry from Tribe Frost was the perfect final touch to the look. Extremely talented photographer Maddy and brilliant videographer Jake.

Our inspiration: the feeling you get at lavender fields when the sunset caresses them.

I created two makeup looks on the gorgeous Urte using different shades of purple and coral. One darker than the other for those looking for an edgier smokey eye. The hair was put into a soft romantic low bun for the first look so that we could showcase that beautiful back of House of Moirai’s stunning dress.

For the second look I did a half up half down style. We wanted the hair to move in harmony with the gorgeous fringes in the HOM collection’s cape.

Here are the breathtaking images by Maddy and the amazing behind the scenes video by Jake. Check out Jakes Vimeo page here: Lavender Feels
